Clementine Rose and the Surprise Visitor — Jacqueline Harvey

The first in a gorgeous new series for young girls, all about the adventures of Clementine Rose

Clementine Rose was delivered not in the usual way, at a hospital, but in the back of a mini-van, in a basket of dinner rolls.

So begins the story of a lovely little girl who lives in Penberthy Floss in a large ramshackle house with her mother, Lady Clarissa, Digby Pertwhistle the butler, and a very sweet teacup pig called Lavender. When her scary Aunt Violet arrives unexpectedly, the household is thrown into disarray. What is it that Aunt Violet really wants, and what is she carrying in her mysterious black bag? From the author of the best-selling Alice-Miranda series, this series is perfect for young readers.
